Berwick was a really busy place back in those days, I lived on Vine Street. That was two short blocks east of AC&F and I often woke up to the clatter of M3's driving up to the 3rd Street siding to be loaded on flat-cars. The test track area is now a public park with a paved track around the perimeter.
Have you heard any stories about the "Talgo Train"? It was an ultra-modern (for the 50's) streamlined passenger train that was, if I remember correctly, built for Spain. Very sleek, like a stainless steel caterpillar. Thanks for writing, Scott, it's nice to know someone still recalls the town of my youth as it was then.
